People complain when you use 'gay' in an insulting context, and somehow we got off on that. I blame Hos.

Gay as an insult is pathetically weak. Anyone offended by that word is ridiculous.

I'm feeling so gay right now I could paint my nails. We have gay rights, gay marriage(happy marriage?!), gays in the military. Now replace gay with "happy" and see how the original meaning has changed.

hetro and homo makes sense. Even though Homo means human. So make up your own word for being homosexual, not gay, not gay marriage (man and woman) Just make up some words and we'll all agree to it.

But why should they be forced to make new words when perfectly good words exist already?

Correction: why should we make up new words when there are perfectly good metaphors and allusions? I'm still in favour of referring to homosexuals as 'men who like musical theatre'.

And Pasi, saying something is ironic when it is not really doesn't count as a 'joke'. Or if it does, then you have one low-grade sense of humour.

I can't believe you're just now figuring this out. I once slipped a soup can into someone's Burger King bag, and that was my best prank of 2008, ironically.

It's my natural firewall against political correctness. If I call a homosexual a homo that's derogatory, yet if I call something gay that isn't homo than it's an insult.

My link

adjective /gā/ 
gayer, comparative; gayest, superlative

  • (of a person, esp. a man) Homosexual
    • - that friend of yours, is he gay?
  • Relating to or used by homosexuals
    • - feminist, black, and gay perspectives
  • Lighthearted and carefree
    • - Nan had a gay disposition and a very pretty face
  • Characterized by cheerfulness or pleasure
    • - we had a gay old time
  • Brightly colored; showy; brilliant
    • - a gay profusion of purple and pink sweet peas
  • Foolish; stupid
    • - making students wait for the light is kind of a gay rule

The irony is staggering...

Gosh, Hostile ... is your culture being raped by political correctness on steroids, since a honest, self contained, self sustaining, conservative American has to go to such extremes?

Luckily I live in a country, where you can call a spade a spade, a shovel a shovel, and a homosexual man a homo or a fagot - in Denmark they even use that last term themselves. If someone here wants to feel offended or insulted, that's basically their own problem. There's no human right that protects you against feeling offended, and rightly so.

I wonder what term you would use for those politically correct so-called 'anti-racists' - those sporting their double-standards so abundantly in MS nowadays - but in fact just are anti-white racists? ... I believe the term 'white nigger' would be appropriate, as the 'white' part removes racial slur against black people, and the 'nigger' part just showing contempt for some white people, which is not only acceptable, but highly encouraged according to political correctness. ;)

Keep in mind, Nam... we live in a place where Football is called Soccer and Tackle Monopoly is called Football, and anyone saying otherwise will be debated poorly. We screw up words then stubbornly defend what time has oddly preserved. Yee-haw...

Hmmm... you sure about that? I mean, it's not impossible for that to be true, but there are a few colors he applies then undoes in chronological order to make that seem unlikely.

Har! I soooooo have to share this. So I was playing Modern Warfare today, and one of my opponents felt the need to say something in response to his defeat:

OUT4DACOUNT
"what color do u paint ur nails little girl cool sheild loser"

After I responded with, "Pank.", he replied:

OUT4DACOUNT
"really lets play back n c what happened in dome clown i waxed the floor wit u loser cornballs n u had a stupid sheild onky girl wuld plat wit that n unlike u i dont use sheilds or nythin else 2 win but u obviously do i dont even use killstreaks either all
support classes cuz im a man c i actually support n help my team thats what real men do they dont camp 4 killstreaks or hide in corners or play wit corny ass shields thats just sad but i c y u do it bcuz u cant do good witout it i beast on losers like u"

I LOOOOOOVE hate mail... love it. I said in response after that, "Har! Your grammar made me lol'. I hope you don't mind me forwarding your message."

OUT4DACOUNT
"all day so go back 2 paintin ur nails princess cuz u cant hang wit the real men and u only use 1 gun now thats sad yea go ahead loser is that the best u could do o n u should talk check ur spelling again idiot man what a loser"

"I love it when people send me hate mail. They don't do it if you're sucky... they do it if you're doing well. I appreciate the vote of confidence you have in me."

Now waiting for another response... this guy is full of stupid, so I hope I get one. If he was smart, the little voice in his head telling him not to respond is Admiral Akbar telling him it's a trap.

Only when it's making fun of stupid people.

But my greatest wish has come true, and yet he complains! I was almost in tears of joy when he did:

OUT4DACOUNT
"hahha u play wit a shield that says enough about ur gaming skills rite there i mean what loser plays wit a shield evry match n truely thinks that they r good haha i mean thats a joke i beasted u in dome with only using my secondary gun the whole game now that speaks 4 itself u could never ever catch me using a stupid girly shield ever i dont- need any kind of stupid things like that bcuz i have skill n thats y i play like a real man"

My Response:
"i uz gun an dat mak u stopid sinse u no plai game way i dos! i du complaine sinse u noob and i best plaier ever! no i reel man sinse i use gun and u girl and just becuz i dont consider u use it fur challenges."

I cannot wait to see what he says to that... I really can't. PS I has the replay of game! He killed me twice where as I... well... killed him 6 times. You do the math since he apparently can't.

It's starting too look like I'm not getting a response from that. It's victory, regardless... since I got the final word and all and since I'm not stupid... but what is victory compared to endless intellectual torment to my most uncunning opponent? I will be on high heels and singing when I start getting hate mail from Rage Hammer...
